7/10
Not As Good As Season Opener
11 February 2015
Warning: Spoilers
Andrew Lincoln said that the first two episodes of the second half of Season 5 would be brutal, and he clearly wasn't kidding.

Plot In A Paragraph: Following on from Beth's wishes, Rick, Michonne, Glenn and Tyreese head to the community where his family last was. However tragedy awaits them.

With Bob and Beth meeting their demise in the first half of season five, we might have hoped for a break from the tragedy. How much more can the viewers take??

Tyreese has had a rough time of it, internally. We've seen Tyreese struggle for seasons, as he's faced hardships, including losing Karen, and the Micah & Lizzie situation, and Carol's eventual confession about killing Karen. These tragedies have taken a toll on his spirit, and in recent episodes, he's seemed determined to maintain his identity and not allow the loss to turn him into something else.

It's sad that two main characters would die in back-to-back episodes. But this is AMC's "The Walking Dead" and like "Game Of Thrones" I learnt a long time ago that nobody is safe!! .

We got to see some of the fallen characters return, including Bob, Beth, Micah, Lizzie and the Governor. And we got one more song from Beth, which was nice after the events in the last episode.
